Review summary

We always take the island tour the first time we visit, to learn the culture and history of each one. The Mardi Gras’s didn’t disappoint at all she was as awesome on our third voyage as she was on the first. Try her or one of her sister ships won’t be disappointed 🛳️🛳️🛳️.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The waiting area for Suites and Diamond guest was spacious and comfortable, but nothing else no water stations or lite snack area a bit disappointing for sure. ☹️☹️

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Plenty of choices for sure, and didn’t disappoint.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Plenty for the young crowd, needs work for the little older groups.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Very good shows, and the music entertainment was above average for sure.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Tons of smiles from the staff, had one issue while being seated at dinner, table for two that’s about 4 inches from another table for two. And sitting waiting for a waiter for like 15 minutes! We stoped at the desk and issue was resolved with a new table that turned out wonderfully 🙂

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It was our third trip abroad her, love the design and layout, hence the reason for three trips and two more booked for the future

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Other than the bathroom being a little tight, cabin and balcony was wonderful. Hint to all our balcony was larger then most because of its placement check it out and you’ll see what I mean. And didn’t cost as some of the extended balconies do. 😉

Ship tip

Travel happy, if you have a positive attitude it’s infectious and we all can have fun.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
Let me say first I’m biased because we live 10 minutes from port and I can see the ships from our patio.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

3 out of 5
Been there done that nice shopping area, beautiful island,🏝️ but a few issues going on right now.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
We love Grand Turk, beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters. Advice take a tour of the island 🏝️ and then enjoy the beach.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Left cabin 7:15 in car 7:40. 😁
